Palais des Thés - Blue of London - Earl Grey Black Tea, Bergamot & Cornflower - Premium Loose Leaf, Serves 20-25 Cups - 3.5oz Tin

I'm drinking a cup while writing this. I love this tea. The flavors are so crisp, lovely and satisfying.

We discovered this tea while traveling in Paris after a friend introduced us to it. Imagine our surprise when we found it here! The bergamot is very fragrant and enjoyable, it feels like you’re drinking a floral perfume, and we mean that in the best way possible. The packaging is very durable, while still looking pretty.

Palais des Thes is like the "poor man's Marriage Freres." MF is well known as the premiere brand of artisan teas in France. It has a storied history. But because of that impressive heritage, their teas are supremely expensive as well. PdT changes this. The quality is pretty much on par, and costs a good bit less. I love Earl Grey, and have found Ahmad Earl Grey to be the best value out there, but PdT does a superb version of it. I highly recommend trying it at least once. You just might become a repeat customer. The flavor is very traditional, but also has a slight taste nuance that is unique. I wouldn't say that this would be an "every day" Earl Grey, but more for those days when you want something a little different.

Delicious take on Earl Grey made unique by the inclusion of orange blossom flavors, cornflower petals and blue mallow (a flower with some alleged medicinal benefits). The citrus notes reported by others is likely the bergamot. The floral nose distinguishes this from other EGs. I like it as iced tea. As others have mentioned, my tin arrived badly dented. They need to fix this apparent issue.

Earl Grey is my go to tea - and Palais des Thés makes the best version. The Bergamot gives it a slightly floral lavender taste that makes it exceptional. The complexity of the flavor combined with the softness of the Bergamot makes it so good.

Excellent tea. Tastes awesome and I love the citrus notes. The aroma of it while it steeps is pretty incredible too.

I have had the product before and do enjoy it. It is a wonderful loose leaf earl gray tea that comes in a tin bin with a lid that seals the tea. When you remove the lid, there is a thin plastic insert at the top of the bin that further keeps the tea fresh. This order arrived without a lid so it wasn't sealed in any way. It only came with the plastic insert, which isn't sealed in anyway and be easily removed. When they send a food product in defective packaging that isn't sealed and doesn't have a lid, they should quickly stand behind their product and offer assistance.

Smooth and fragrant morning tea. A lovely way to start the day. Bergamot bouquet makes all bright and light. Delightful

Beautiful and tasty aroma.

dommage que je ne puisse le trouver sur Amazon en pochette 100g, ayant déjà cette boîte métal, je trouve ridicule de la racheter, d'autant plus que cela fait plus cher (3,50€ de +). Il faut donc aller sur le site du vendeur ou les FP ne sont offerts qu'à partir de 45€ d'achat ! A part cela, ce thé est divin ! Je suis très accro au Earl Grey, j'en ai goûté une bonne 20aine !! Et celui-ci, bien que la bergamote ne soit pas dominante, est vraiment délicieux !

C'est la première fois que j'utilise du thé en vrac, rien à voir avec le thé en sachet. je recommande. J'ai acheté dans une boutique près de chez moi du Earl Grey avec bergamote, rien à voir avec ce thé. Il était sans saveur. Celui-ci est plus cher mais quel arôme !!

J’ai acheté ce thé pour faire un cadeau à une connaisseuse de thés. Il est très bon d’après la personne à qui je l’ai offert. Je recommande sans risque ! Petit bémol, la boite est arrivée un peu bosselée mais ça n’enlève rien à la qualité du thé, la personne à qui je l’ai offert préférait du bon thé à une belle boite, donc bingo !

Pas de mauvaise surprise : thé de qualité, comme en magasin. Pour les amateurs et les habitués de la chaîne, allez y en confiance.
